Cool. But they should released that for the PS2.

Nice, whatever happened to the GBA ports? Was that just bullshit or what?

They make it sound like a bad thing.

Hmm, probably another emu package. At least the games should look better on the PSP's screen than they do on the Xbox/PS2 ports, as long as they don't stretch them horizontally anyway. All the Neo games in one go is a pretty good deal if you don't have the originals.

Nice... I only have Slug 1 on MVS... and it would be nice to grab them all on PSP for the price of Slug 3...

Apparantly not, but the fact that MS1 GBA is STILL early in development doesn't get my hopes up. http://www.gamespot.com/gba/action/meta ... id=6146550

Shame about the controls on the PSP. I've tried to play Metal Slug on the NeoGeo CD emu and it really doesn't work

I wouldn't mind it releasing... I'd probably pick it up because I never tire of playing on a single credit on my MVS. But cramming it on the GBA would definitely effect animation and such.

The original MS is only a 193 meg cart, so they could conceivably fit it on the GBA with no animation cuts if they wanted to (I think the system has the sprite drawing capabilities and such to pull off a perfect port). Making the gameplay work with the lower resolution is still a factor, though.

There was a little preview of MS1 GBA in the Nintendo Winter Catalog. They may have just been desperate to show SOMETHING coming out for GBA though...

...cause, uh, nothing is.

This, Mega Man: PO and that Ghosts and Goblins game are really making me want a PSP but damn the 300$ Canadian for a handheld, plus all the other things I "must" buy... maybe I should go to the casino.
